FITNESS IN THE THICK OF IT w/ MADELINE MOVES
Big show today on the Carpool! Kicking it off with a recap of the Chicago auto show and spending time with Mama Knows Carseats. Kelly may have posted too many reels, but how could she not when there was so much content? It was a big auto show for parents as Britax became the first car seat company to ever reveal a new product at an auto show. Why aren't more carseat companies taking advantage of these shows? The good news is you'll be able to see plenty of them at the Car Mom Auto Show!
The other big story from over the weekend was, of course, the Super Bowl. The game itself was pretty boring, but Kelly and Lizz both enjoyed the halftime show. Plus, were there any standout commercials or was it all just 'meh'?
Lizz has some Low Lift Luxuries she's bringing to the table this week... literally. Kelly is getting ready to give up sugar for lent. Dare we say it will be her new micro-hobby? Then, Kelly and Lizz answer one of their most asked questions - how much does Lizz make?!?
Finally it is onto an interview with Madeline Custer, creator of the Moves app. She tells Kelly and Lizz the story behind the creation of the fitness app and how it has grown over the years. As a mom of three, how has becoming a mom changed how she approaches fitness? Plus, her lasagna sound recipe for Ditch the Drive-Thru that you could make tonight!
